When you take over the living room with multiple costume parts (<Me)
My mom keeps asking me to move stuff.

Yep, this. My dad looked around the living room yesterday, with fabric all over the couch cushions and mockups/works in progress slung over the top, thread, scissors and random stuff on the tv stand, heat gun, sewing machine, iron, and ironing board in front of the tv, roll of wonderflex against the couch, giant gourd prop taking up half the love seat, and simply said, "I will be glad when you're finished with this." I love my parents, they don't really care if I'm temporarily trashing the living room as long as they still have a place to sit XD

YKYAC when your dad is going to throw away his e-cig and you practically jump for it because you 'could use it for a cosplay prop', even though you don't have solid plans for a character that smokes yet.

When you want to wear your curly purple waist length wig to the mall, just because.

When you stay the night at your PiC's house and her mom is resigned to us taking over the entire kitchen/dining/living room area as soon as she goes to bed and just sighs and tells us to make sure we clean it up by the time she gets up to work... and you clean up and go to bed mere minutes before she gets up to get ready for work.

When you spend three hours bent over a cardboard box of Depend men's underwear cutting out shapes for props and covering them in expanding foam. (I never want to see a box cutter again; I still can't fully feel my right thumb)
